Jesus of Nazareth Soundtrack is Reverent, Liturgical and Beautiful

There are some movie soundtracks that just stick with me. The score from Jesus of Nazareth (1977) is one. It's haunting, bold and profoundly moving. My husband and I watch it with the kids every year and we cry at the crucifixion scene every time. Viewing and listening is a spiritual experience almost as intense as mass. The London Philharmonic Orchestra does stellar job performing Maurice Jarre's transcendent score. Jesus of Nazareth (Franco Zeffirelli) is a must watch for the Lenten and Easter season. Watch it with your family, classroom, Sunday School, youth group, religious ed class or Bible Study group.  Best Movie for Lent and Easter: Jesus of Nazareth

Best Christmas Movie Music Soundtracks and CDs

Christmas is a sensual experience: Christmas smells like pine and cinnamon. Christmas tastes like smoked ham and marzipan. Christmas music lifts us out of the dreary and into the divine. Here are Christmas holiday movie soundtracks that will delight your senses. I don't think that it would be possible for me to list all my favorite Christmas songs. But I can direct you to some glorious Christmas movie soundtracks. For my suggestion of "A Christmas Carol," I'll just add that when I wrote this, I couldn't find the soundtrack. The composer Nick Bicat responded, saying it was available from his website http://www.nickbicat.com/, as is his "Scarlet Pimpernel" CD and other scores he's composed. Best Christmas Movie Music Soundtracks and CDs
